Flash 10 SCE creation script. The script checks to ensure the system uses an older non-SSE2 processor, otherwise import and run ''getFlash11'' from the dCore repository. It installs the last known working Flash 10 version for these older processors. It creates a flash10.sce in the /sce directory and requests user permission to add it to sceboot.lst. As Adobe no longer provides Flash 10 security updates, the script can be deleted once flash10.sce is created.

Future update checks not required, as Adobe no longer supports Flash 10.

The script was created for practice and appears to work well. Even though I (nitram) no longer use Flash, rather than delete sharing with others :)
